Multi Cultural

D200 200mm 1/200s f/2.8 ISO 800

Yesterday I was able to re-acquaint myself with a little bit of highbrow culture, which I have been missing since I moved to Asia. In the UK I was a regular visitor to the opera and to a lesser extent the ballet as I not only lived …

Feeling Off Colour

Nikon D200 50mm f/11 1/250s ISO100

This morning I woke up to the feeling that I had had holes drilled into my skull and someone was pouring water into the space behind my eyes. Suffice it to say none of the errands which I was supposed to do today got done, thankfully …

Happy Birthday Mark O

Nikon D200 26mm f/2.8 1/2s ISO100

This weekend I was invited to the birthday of fellow photographer Mark Oxley. I had planned on staying briefly before heading home, but I failed epically and so what else could I do but take some pictures.

I wanted to put a lot of …

London Calling

D200 17mm f/2.8 2.5 sec ISO 100

London calling pictures are up over here. This is a very very loosely edited set with about 160 pictures from the event and the after-party. I'm planning on producing a tighter compilation today for those of you who don't have time for a …

I've been the one to party...

Nikon D200 32mm f/2.8 1/2 sec ISO 100

So last night I went to the gym and trained which was going great until I was doing "one last round" of light boxing, when I stepped back onto a wet patch on the mats. It's fair to say I slipped and fell with all the grace of a …

RIP Polaroid

A very sad day.

Not only does this affect polaroids core market of the casual 'fun' snapper, it will cause all kinds of problems for anyone who works with large format film. I can only assume the technology will be licenced by another company but if it isn't it might …

48 Hours off from the world man

Nikon D200 30mm f/4.5 6 secs ISO 100

I have nothing work related happening this weekend aside from testing a new consignment of kit which UPS are holding onto for me until tomorrow morning. As a result I intend to go and to party hard and party often...

Tonight I shall …

My Love is Like a Truck....

Nikon D200 50mm f/1.8 1/13s ISO100

Last night I paid my own hard earned money to go to Berzerk a recently launched club night in Geinmae. I had a great time, with an awesome crowd of people, who whilst maybe a little older than the typical Shibuya set, knew how to have …

Juice and errr More Juice

Nikon D200 37mm f/7.1 1/200s ISO100

Sad as it may seem I think the thing that I would miss most about living in Japan, when I finally decide to move on to new pastures, is a soft drink. Suntory's CC Lemon is an oddity for soft drinks being neither particularly sweet nor …
